Comment policy:

Planet 3 allows each author to moderate comments to his or her own articles. Unless otherwise specified by the article's author, this is default comment policy: constructive comments that move the discussion on are always welcome, no matter what line of argumentation they take. Comments that add nothing interesting or which try to derail the ongoing discussion are ruthlessly purged.

In doing this, we are not worrying about fairness, balance, etc. All we care about is constructive engagement.

Comments from nonmembers must be explicitly approved, while comments from logged-in members may on occasion be demoted. Please be patient while your comment is reviewed. Occasionally comments are misclassified by the spam filter. If you feel that your comment was missed erroneously, please feel free to recompose and resubmit, or to let us know in a separate comment.
